Celebrated Selfie hitmaker Koffi Olomide alias Mopao Mokonzi is officially coming to Rhumbanise Nairobi on December 9.

This time Mopao has promised that the only drama Kenyans will experience will be his smooth powerful vocals, heartfelt lyrics and legendary soukous dance.

Speaking to Maina Kageni on Classic 105 on Thursday, November  2, via a phone call, the biggest soukous maestro acknowledged what happened in 2016 when Kenyan authorities detained and subsequently deported him, saying he has made amends.

"Good morning. I'm very fine. I want to greet the authority of Kenya. I want to say good morning to my family in Kenya, Kenya is my family, my heart. I  have friends in Kenya, I have sisters."

The charismatic Congolese star with a distinctive fashion sense expressed regret for his actions and he is extending an olive branch to Kenyans and the authorities.

"I can't wait to be in the country. Now it's okay (referring to fixing the situation arising from the incident), Now it's okay, so thank you to the new authority of Kenya.

Thank you to the Immigration and to Radio Africa," Mpoao said glowingly.

"I've missed Kenya. It's a long time, many many years," he noted before Maina asked him how he felt knowing his Kenyan fans were waiting for him, "I'm touched."

The ever-evolving king of Lingala also affirmed his musical connection with Kenya, where he is admired by both the young and old for his skill in incorporating rap skills and muziki ya bakulutu(for the elderly) seamlessly.

"I am coming to Kenya on December 9, so I expect to be in the country for three or four days before the show. I am so excited. I've missed being there to face my fans of Kenya. I have so many friends in this country."

"I want you to be with me. I say thank you to the Kenyan people, they made Koffi Olomide."
